Practical Exercises in Elementary Meteorology
by Robert DeCourcy Ward
Publisher: Ginn & company 1899
ISBN/ASIN: B009W4O1B4
Number of pages: 222
Description:
The object of this book is to supply a guide in the elementary observational and inductive studies in meteorology. This Manual is not intended to replace the text-books, but is designed to prepare the way for their more intelligent use. Simple preliminary exercises in the taking of meteorological observations, and in the study of the daily weather maps, as herein suggested, will lay a good foundation on which later studies may be built up.

Earth's Energy Imbalance and Implicationsby J. Hansen, M. Sato, P. Kharecha, K. von Schuckmann - arXiv
Observations of ocean temperature confirm that Earth is absorbing more energy from the sun than it is radiating to space as heat. The energy imbalance provides verification of the dominant role of the human-made greenhouse effect in climate change.
